We are excited to announce that your customer can now select the payment plan they wish for their new annual and triennial Software Subscriptions. They can choose either to pay with a one-off payment or with monthly or annual installments. This option is available to all your Software Subscription customers. By default, the Billing Frequency option for flexible payment plans is enabled, after running the Get Services Definition process.

⚙️ How it works: Once you run the Get Services Definition process, our platform will automatically update your product catalog for all Software Subscription offerings (for which Microsoft is offering monthly and annual payment options). Your customers and resellers will then be able to select their billing preferences during purchase (both from the BSS and the Storefront portals), and our platform will both provision and bill the subscriptions according to the flexible payment plan the customer selected.

💎 Value: Flexible billing plan payments offer customers financial flexibility, improved budgeting, enhanced accessibility, better customer retention, and a competitive advantage. By allowing customers to choose payment plans that suit their financial situations, they can manage expenses predictably and avoid debt. This makes products and services more affordable and inclusive, increasing customer satisfaction and loyalty.

Activating the Billing Frequency functionality for the Microsoft Software Subscriptions After the release 3.28.171, you have to run the 'Get Services Definition' (GSD) process for all Microsoft Cloud Services Service Manager instances, to update your Microsoft Software Subscriptions catalogue as well as make the Billing Frequency functionality available.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
